Kevo Wesley

KW: I believe college coaches should recruit me because I am a dedicated athlete and always want to do something to separate myself. I always want to compete to be the best I can be. Also, I always want to lead by example and do extra. I take care of buisness in the classroom and take my craft very serious. I pay attention to details a lot.

LPI: Do you play any other sports during the offseason?

KW: I formerly was a basketball player only but unfourtnately I had to give up hoops to train for football, but I have been at my Coach Arthur Ray Lineman Academy and lifting 5 days a week. I plan on throwing Shot Put and Discus in the Spring for track.

LPI: What schools do you currently have offers from and what other schools are showing strong interest?

KW: I have offers from Toledo and Southern Miss but I have strong interest from mostly Big 10, Big 12, SEC, ACC, and MAC schools. I’ve recently started talking to some Pac 12 schools.

LPI: What are you looking for in a program to continue your football career at?

KW: A program where I can get a great degree, develop as a player and as a man. A place where I can potentially become prepared for the NFL as well. I want the program to feel like home and capture a great experience along with building great relationships.

LPI: At what point did you realize you had what it takes to play college ball?

KW: When I released my junior highlights and a lot of coaches were interested, then the offer from Southern Miss during the playoffs of my season gave me a lot of confidence. Also, when coaches were surprised this past year was my first year playing football.

LPI: Do you have a dream school?

KW: My dream school is the school that I get the best vibe and home feeling from. A school where I can get a great degree and develop as a player and person.

LPI: Who are some of your teammates or training partners that you believe can play at the next level, but have gone overlooked by college coaches?
